Dialogue

Quest Description

Zhiping of the Adventurers' Guild seems to be investigating the earthquakes and strange monster movements in Tianqiu Valley...

Talk to Zhiping first

(Talk to Zhiping): Zhiping: ...Ugh, now Tianqiu Valley, too?; Is something wrong?; Zhiping: Oh, (‍Traveler‍), it's you. Pleased to see you, though I certainly wasn't expecting to run into you today.; Zhiping: Um, anyway... Have you been to Tianqiu Valley or Nantianmen lately?; Zhiping: The Guild has been receiving a constant stream of reports about earthquakes in those areas recently.; Zhiping: It was just minor tremors at first, but they've been getting more and more serious since.; Zhiping: Then, not long ago, we received word of a particularly strong earthquake that caused part of the mountains and ruins to collapse, revealing a gigantic cavern.; Zhiping: The report also mentioned that some mysterious monsters have been sighted in the area. Based on the descriptions, they may well be none other than the Geovishaps and Primo Geovishaps that once terrorized Liyue...; Do you need any help from me?; Zhiping: Well, I'd like to ask you to head to Tianqiu Valley to investigate that huge cavern and report on the impact of the earthquake on the surrounding environment.; Zhiping: As for the monsters... If it's true that they're appearing in great numbers, then we cannot afford to ignore them. We must decide on what countermeasures to take.; Zhiping: Of course, this counts as official work for the Guild, and you will be compensated accordingly. What do you think?; I'll do it.; Zhiping: Thank you very much, please stay safe while exploring in that area.

(Talk to Zhiping again, optional): Zhiping: ...Ugh, now Tianqiu Valley, too?

(Approach the Geovishap and Geovishap Hatchling near the cavern entrance): Paimon: Look at the size of that thing... Seems real dangerous, alright. Let's proceed with caution.

(Approach the cavern entrance): Paimon: Huh, this should be that huge cavern... Paimon wonders if there's any treasure inside...

(Approach the Primo Geovishap): Paimon: Whoa, what is that thing? C—Careful, we can't let it notice us...

(After defeating the Primo Geovishap): Paimon: Is this what's been causing those earthquakes? So powerful... so scary!

(Report back to Zhiping): Zhiping: What's the situation, (‍Traveler‍)?; So, about the Primo Geovishaps and Tianqiu Valley...; Zhiping: ...A giant cavern ruin, high levels of monster activity, and a Primo Geovishap within...; Zhiping: Okay. I think I understand. Thank you for coming to me with this news. I'll handle the paperwork and make an official report to the Guild.; What's with that area, anyway?; Zhiping: Hmm, according to some texts, Tianqiu Valley was once a prosperous settlement at some point in the ancient past.; Zhiping: As to how it came to be the way it is now, it seems to have had something to do with the rampage of an ancient dragon king...; Zhiping: There aren't a lot of details available about that incident, but legend has it that Rex Lapis and his adepti eventually imprisoned it within some sort of adepti realm.; Zhiping: Its servants then fled into the depths of the earth and entered a deep slumber, waiting for the day when the dragon king would rise again.; Does that mean these monster sightings...; Zhiping: Hahaha. Those are just folktales, you know? No one knows how true they are.; Zhiping: Regardless, these constant earthquakes and the sudden appearance of those monsters are matters that demand our immediate attention.; Zhiping: Right, please take this as your payment. Thank you for the information you provided.

Defeat the Primo Geovishap first

(Approach the cavern entrance): Paimon: Huh, so there's a huge cavern here... Paimon wonders if there's any treasure inside...; Paimon: Let's explore a little further up ahead.

(Approach the Primo Geovishap): Paimon: Whoa, what is that thing? C—Careful, we can't let it notice us...

(After defeating the Primo Geovishap): Paimon: Wow, you managed to beat that monster! Seems like you're getting stronger all the time.; Paimon: Still... what was that? If only there was someone we could ask...

(Talk to Zhiping)

Zhiping: ...Ugh, now Tianqiu Valley, too?

Is something wrong?

Zhiping: Oh, (‍‍), it's you. Pleased to see you, though I certainly wasn't expecting to run into you today.

Zhiping: Um, anyway... Have you been to Tianqiu Valley or Nantianmen lately?

Zhiping: The Guild has been receiving a constant stream of reports about earthquakes in those areas recently.

Zhiping: It was just minor tremors at first, but they've been getting more and more serious since.

Zhiping: Then, not long ago, we received word of a particularly strong earthquake that caused part of the mountains and ruins to collapse, revealing a gigantic cavern.

Zhiping: The report also mentioned that some mysterious monsters have been sighted in the area. Based on the descriptions, they may well be none other than the Geovishaps and Primo Geovishaps that once terrorized Liyue...

Do you need any help from me?

Zhiping: Well, I'd like to ask you to head to Tianqiu Valley to investigate that huge cavern and report on the impact of the earthquake on the surrounding environment.

Zhiping: As for the monsters... If it's true that they're appearing in great numbers, then we cannot afford to ignore them. We must decide on what countermeasures to take.

Zhiping: Of course, this counts as official work for the Guild, and you will be compensated accordingly. What do you think?

Zhiping: Hmm, judging by your expression... Did something happen?

Oh, I've been there, alright...

Zhiping: Have you, now? Well, you are an elite adventurer, after all. It's no surprise that you follow the scent of danger wherever it leads you.

So, about the Primo Geovishaps and Tianqiu Valley...

Zhiping: ...A giant cavern ruin, high levels of monster activity, and a Primo Geovishap within...

Zhiping: Okay. I think I understand. Thank you for coming to me with this news. I'll handle the paperwork and make an official report to the Guild.

What's with that area, anyway?

Zhiping: Hmm, according to some texts, Tianqiu Valley was once a prosperous settlement at some point in the ancient past.

Zhiping: As to how it came to be the way it is now, it seems to have had something to do with the rampage of an ancient dragon king...

Zhiping: There aren't a lot of details available about that incident, but legend has it that Rex Lapis and his adepti eventually imprisoned it within some sort of adepti realm.

Zhiping: Its servants then fled into the depths of the earth and entered a deep slumber, waiting for the day when the dragon king would rise again.

Does that mean these monster sightings...

Zhiping: Hahaha. Those are just folktales, you know? No one knows how true they are.

Zhiping: Regardless, these constant earthquakes and the sudden appearance of those monsters are matters that demand our immediate attention.

Zhiping: Right, please take this as your payment. Thank you for the information you provided.
